Yep. Put the spring that made 6 psi w the old exhaust in and went out for a shakedown. Went to 15psi again.

So I decided instead of a 2nd 38mm I'm Putting a 46mm wg on it and in a different position on the cross over. I'm going to copy gadgetized layout. Hopefully it will solve my issue of over boosting.

^^^^ thanks

I talked to Rick today and he asked that I tried routing the WG into the exhaust before buying a new 46mm. If it works - PERFECT. If not its 50 bucks for pipes and flex joint and a few hours. Then I'll buy the bigger WG.

I was getting a little drone at 2500 - 2800 rpm. Added the resonator and it helped. Now its just where I want it - a little throaty when driving around, flows more than I need, and looks great.

I did not have time to reposition the gate and route it back into the exhaust. Next time I get to the shop ill do that. I love hearing the turbo spool when cruising around and hope to hear it scream when I lay into it and hear the spool instead of the dump
